Re: hard lump prox pip joint of 4th & 5th toes

You probably have hammertoes with either an overlying corn or a precursor to the corn which is sometimes called a knuckle pad. Shoes as you know aggravate this.

Have you looked at wearing a shoe with a wide toe box such as the SAS Freetime? ALso when is the last time your foot was measured? Feet like the rest of the body can change shape with age.

The Active Ankle offers flexibility and security. It will feel different from anything you have ever worn for ankle protection. The hinge allows freedom of motion that you may not be accustomed to. Do not mistake this freedom of movement for lack of support. A leading university said, the Active Ankle provides more support (inversion) than the leading air-stirrup brace, the leading lace-up brace, or a tape job.
